Hellooo!
I'm Morgan and i'm from colchester. Have a 2000 ITR in milano red.
Anyway, breif history. (sorry for the insta pics, I often forget I own a DSLR)
How it all started...
Car had previously been owned by another enthusiast, had spoon brakes, TE37s ect. Most of that was sold off before I got it though.
Still had a few bits left over as you can see.
Custom straight through exhast, HIDs, Skunk2 battery tie, braided lines, MC brace, JDM rear lights, JDM instrument panel, Red recaros (Milanos all came with black ones), Ferodo DS2500 pads and grooved discs.
It was rust free and didn't throw smoke out the back like most B series do nowadays so I couldn't say no even though it was slightly more than they normally go for.
The history was immaculate, have every MOT its ever had, Delivery sheet from 2000, receipts for EVERYTHING EVER and even the 3 original keys! (found the 3rd one underneath the spare wheel)
Im good friends with the guys over at 6two1 (check it out people) so of course I went straight there to rinse my bank account.
Purchased a set of downstar neochrome engine bay bolts, coilovers, neo chrome wheel bolts and a a neochrome gear knob. Also got myself a spoon sports mirror later on and a funky Teg phone case.
On they went at the 6two1 garage. Left it like that for a month or so before I started any other work.
Next up was the dirty seats
Saw some carbon doorcard inserts on facebook and couldn't say no
And then a set of Sa3Rs appeared along with a M&M rear strut.
Had a lot of trouble fitting these, first the 6two1 wheel bolts were too thick and I couldn't get a socket over them to tighten them up. Bought a set of Mutekis and drove for about 5 miles before the next problem cropped up.
The valves sit quite far in on these advans and they were rubbing on the front brakes.
The brakes took the valve cap off and the valve with it leaving me with a flat. Had left my standard wheels at a friends so had to drive all the way back which ruined the tyre.
Off they came and I got a set of RSRs fitted the next day.
Finally got them on after all my troubles, fitted some RSRs as well, only to find that the 'slight Nick' on my lca from cutting the bolt off has turned into a hole. :/
Bought some polybushed lcas and wishbones to replace it from my mates del sol.
Terrible pics I know, my driveway is really awkward.
Had a m&m strut brace sat in my garage for a while. Had to cut the plastics to fit it and just never got round to it until this weekend.
Also had a neo chrome gear knob but my old one was stuck on, got some mole grips on it to find the previous owner had cut the thread and over tightened the knob past the thread onto the shifter. :/
Picked up a Kingston edition personal 330mm steering wheel too.
booked in for snetterton on the 29th, seen a few Hondas on the list. Anyone on here?
